And finally from the incredible @in4sera of @autsera
- A quote from A Wrinkle In Time "'The only way to cope with something deadly serious is to try to treat it a little lightly." Mistakes will happen but that's ok - don't be so hard on yourself.
@WomeninTechFest
From our founder @linaychan
- Find a mentor. A lot will fall on your shoulders and you need to be strong for a lot of people, so its good to have someone to rant too! Also, invest in self care and your support network - founder burn out is not a myth!
@WomeninTechFest
@linaychan on our funding journey: "Some of our most supportive investors have been our angel investors - it can be harder to find the right one but when you do they can be transformative for your business"
@WomeninTechFest#funding#angelinvesting
So glad we got to give the incredible @zincvc a shout out - always grateful we were part of their very first cohort, creating businesses that helped to improve women and girl's mental health!
@WomeninTechFest#Zinc#Funding#Investment
Once again, this panel is full of #womenintech who have been inspired to create their businesses by personal experience and in some cases, difficulties. We love seeing founders turn their tough times into inspiring businesses.
@WomeninTechFest@femalefounders#femtech
The fear of failing stopped @inasismail from starting her business - "Until I realised that life is short and I am the person who writes the song of my life - that's when I took the leap."
Her incredible business @autsera is now two years old!
@WomeninTechFest#womenintech
@linaychan on your relationship with investors: "It's important to be honest with your investors and have an open dialogue when it comes to salary vs equity. They invest in you so you can focus on the business, so they want to understand your needs"
@WomeninTechFest
Our founder @linaychan sharing insights on the ups and downs of founder life - "There are hard days, & there are often more reasons to give up than carry on - so you have to start a business you really care about - that will help you push through the hard days"
#womenintech
We're so excited to be part of the @WomeninTechFest Start Up panel today! We're sharing our story - from inspiration to funding - and hope we can encourage other femtech founders to launch their big idea.
#femalefounders#womenintech#startupstories
Our founder @linaychan was honoured to be invited on to @BBCRadioLondon this evening, to discuss Meghan Markle's heartbreaking miscarriage & the importance of opening up the conversation so people can get the support they need when experiencing #pregnancyloss#miscarriage
"Millennials approach to healthcare in a totally different way. There has been a huge shift and people are realising that you shouldn't just be thinking about health when you have a problem - you should be trying to stay healthy"
@linaychan#FemTech#ReproductiveHealth
"Most innovation is born out of your own problem. Female founders have realised that there is no solution to their problem - so they want to create one. That's what's great about femtech"
That's exactly why we founded Parla!
@deepalinangia@entouragenetwo1
So interesting to hear from Daniela of #OCONHealthcare about the lack of progress for the male pill...
"The side effects that have stopped it being approved are the same side effects that women deal with every day"
